Dear Steve:

I would very much appreciate your help with an error which I
inadvertently made while using your instructions on how to get rid of
the ugly penguin. I got rid of the ugly penguin all right, but I also
got a Failed message during boottime concerning a syntax error in  
unexpected token in line 50 of /etc/rc.d/rc.local/rc3.d/S99local:
[sher@adsl-77-232-194 rc3.d]$ cat S99local:

I am including it by attachment. 

I know nothing about programming, but I did try to see some pattern and
use my "common sense" to figure this out. Naturally, uninformed "common
sense", professionally speaking, isn't worth a hoot.

By the way, someone else recommended deleting /etc/issue. I did that but
the file ?etc/issue was always recreated just the same.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Benjamin
